Another bumper IP day for the ECJ, with Advocate General Ruiz-Jarabo Colomer issuing his opinion on the registrability of surnames in Nichols (see separate post) and Advocate General Leger issuing his opinion in Heidelberger Bauchemie on the registrability of two-colour marks. Sadly though, the later opinion is not yet available in English, only German, French and Portuguese.

No comments:
All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.
It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
